Shelling by Yemeni group kills four troops on Saudi border
Shelling by Yemen's Houthi militia killed four soldiers from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates stationed on Yemen's border wth the kingdom, Saudi state media reported early on Thursday.
The Houthis have stepped up attacks on the kingdom's border posts in recent weeks, despite three months of bombardment by a Saudi-led coalition intent on restoring Yemen's exiled government. Two soldiers from the Royal Saudi Land Forces, one from the kingdom's Border Guards, and an officer from the UAE's forces were killed on Wednesday in three incidents along different stretches of the border, a mostly mountainous area.
